Norinco Type 56-1

A full stock Norinco Type 56  is used by a Somali to whack Mike Durant in the head. It has a slanted AKM syle muzzle brake added on. Nearly all of the Somali gunmen are armed with the Norinco Type 56-1  assault rifle, which is a Chinese derivative of the AKS-47/AKMS. They are identified by the hooded front sights, which only Chinese Kalashnikov rifles have. At one point in the film, one of the soldiers can be seen removing the magazine from a discarded Type 56-1 and stuffing it in an empty pouch. Whether this was done to take back a souvenir or for some other reason is not known.
